Personally I think Revolution is gonna be great, but I am gonna be missing a lot of the customization from the PC version. Of course, I'm hoping that if it does well, they'll try to integrate a bit more fo the PC experience into the console versions and force the industry to realize consoles can do Strategy games properly.

Storm Rider:
I think Revolution is simplified in the right places for easy console play, and it still keeps the overall spirit of the gameplay. Some UI elements in the demo seemed a little clunky, but I'm sure I'd adapt to them. Not sure if I'll buy it, since I have Civ 4 and Beyond the Sword on my laptop, but I think it's an accurate port of Civilization for consoles and it's about as good as can be hoped for. I'm intrigued to see the DS version, because portable Civilization means I'd probably never get anything done ever again.

Also, I really like in Revolution how each civ has a specific perk for each age. I hope that they implement that in the next PC game, because that's a great idea.

I found it weird that no one has typed about Stars!
I'm not that old (28 atm) and I remember watching the sun rise during university promising to myself: "one more turn" while I conquered the universe...

at least once a day i tell myself "i don't need Civ. Rev. i really really don't."

but i have a feeling it's not working.

I just found my old copy of AoEII, installing now. pity I don't have the exp.

Also, they've got most of the older Civ games and HoMM on Gametap, as well as quite a few RTS as well. Heroes of Might and Magic though, my god, that was my favorite childhood game, one of the first games I ever truly played to where I began to identify as a gamer. Bought it in a mac games ten pack when I was like 10 myself with a bunch of other computer games, the original one. Spent so many freakin horus on the campaign, and the extra maps, and when I found out that not only had they already came out with a sequel but a third one it was more or less the game that got me started in keeping up with the industry. This is when i found gamefaqs, gamespot, IGN and all the others for the first time, started reading up on other games and yeah. Fond fuckin' memories. A lot of people I know didn't like the fourth one, but I absolutely loved having a hero as an actual character on the map, leveling up to the point where he could take down stacks of dragons, etc. I think a big part of why I never bought 5 is because they decided to take they away, and I just didn't want to go back, actual 3D graphics be damned. That saying i still love playing 3.
